Module 3 Syllabus
Aspire Horizons Course
Time Commitment
Module 3 is six weeks long. You can expect to spend approximately five hours per week on your Module 3 assignments. The program
is completed virtually with both asynchronous and synchronous components.
Peer Groups
You will be assigned to a Group of other students as a part of our community building efforts. Groups will be accessed through
Discord, which you will be invited to via email. Do not share the Discord link with anyone. Doing so will result in your removal
from the program.
Your group number will be the date of the month you were born. For example, if you were born on March 6th, you would be in Group
06. If you were born on January 31st, you would be in Group 31.
You will use the Group chat channel to meet your fellow Group members and engage in conversation. You will use the assignments
channel to submit your discussion post responses.
You should choose one of the different sub-group channels that is the most interesting to you of these options: environment, public
health, business, technology, justice and equity, arts and culture, interdisciplinary. You can use these channels to connect with others
who are working on similar topics to collaborate or share ideas.
There are also video rooms available in Discord. These are called Meeting Rooms, and they are smaller than the Group spaces.
Meeting Rooms are available to participants in any Group, so you might meet new people that are not a member of your Group. The

In this Module, you’ll have various kinds of activities and you’ll also have written learning assignments. There are 4 types of
assignments: 1) Mini Quizzes, 2) Reflection Prompts, 3) Discussion Posts 4) Assessments. Mini Quizzes are short multiple choice
and free response questions you can answer after each lecture video; they are not used to determine whether you pass Module 3.
Reflection Prompts are completely private tasks that you complete independently and do not submit for review. Discussion Posts are
sent in your Group channels and build the foundation of your discussion with other participants. Assessments are items that are sent
to, and viewable by, Aspire.
At the end of the Module you will complete the End of Module Assessment. There will be some multiple choice questions you
answer based on the three lectures. The assessment will also ask you to submit your project proposal.
